YAPTDTST (Yet Another Program That Does The Same Thing) eh? Only worse. Because Empathy does Voice AND Video over Google Talk. GTalx obviously doesn’t do Video. For that matter, Google’s own Google Talk doesn’t do video!

And most of you say you didn’t have problems with pidgin and empathy for voice chat, so well done. I did almost everything in the past to here some dissent audio out of empathy but it was way too crappy. I hadn’t tried pidgin, terrible localization (no spell check when one switches the keyboard layout, awful problem, I’m a terrible Cyrillic writer :)). And you are forgetting something 😉 empathy does not support file transfer. I’ve not tried pidgin on that matter, maybe it can. I’m really happy now. ????????.

Pidgin and Empathy both work well. This statement:
“Requires configuring server, port, ssl and god knows what. Am a newbie!” proves that you have no business posting on a site called “Ubuntu Geek” as you are clearly not a geek in any way! There’s nothing wrong with being a newbie, but you certainly should not be giving out bad advice!
